What I don't like about the 1 lb coils, is that the wire has much more twist
to it than the 5 lb roll. I don't know if the wire is rolled when still hot,
but I prefer the 5 lb because it has less tendency to bunch up and twist as
I string the piano. I was led to believe that when the wire gets twisted it
can produce false beats. It was never proven to me, but still I prefer the
larger coils. I bought plastic containers ( like tupperware but cheaper
ones) and cut a large hole on the top. Even if the container is square, the
large hole out of wich comes out the wire make them behave just like the
cans.

  Hi,
   I also use the cans with 1 lb. coils.It's eaiser and much faster than any
other way I've found.You can keep the cans in a plastic box,for easy
storage,and easy access when stringing, also keep moisture out.
  Good stringing
